One of the smallest cars on the market, the Smart Fortwo was redesigned for 2012, with a more catchy exterior and an overall better interior.
Designed as a small city car, the Smart Fortwo did the job. It was easy to park and manoeuvre around town in congested metropolitan environment.
While the small car looked tiny from the outside, the passengers inside would have plenty of room.
The fuel consumption was also good and the Smart Fortwo offered decent safety features.
Otherwise, the small 2-seater did not offer much comfort, agility or luxury and wasn’t the cheapest on the market.
The Smart Fortwo was offered in 2 body shapes, a hatchback coupe or a cabriolet. Both of them were available with two trim levels: Pure and Passion.
The Pure version included 15-inch steel wheels, keyless entry and a leather-wrapped steering wheel. The air conditioning was not standard and was available as an optional features, as well as a radio with an AUX and USB jack.
The Passion trim level included the Pure’s features and added 15-inch alloys wheels, a glass sunroof, heater power mirrors and a sport steering wheel.
The Cabriolet was equipped with a power convertible top, a glass rear window and side airbags.
An extensive list of features was available as optional.
The Smart Fortwo was equipped with a rear-mounted 1.2-liter 3-cylinder engine with 70 hp.
The automatomated manual transmission with a single-clutch was not the softest though.
